Mapping
| DESCRIPTION | ID # |

|
Users reported being unable to sync from the Mapping module to the Acreage Report (Sync to AR functionality) if an NOL existed for the crop. With this ticket, the System will now allow sync to AR as long as no signature date exists yet for the crop or if the NOL is voided/withdrawn. |
105206 |
|
Users requested to have the ability to key only the year and no month for Set Out and Grafted dates in the Plant panel. This has been implemented. |
98435 |
|
CIMS: Users requested the addition of the total cropland acre by farm number (FN) on the printed CIMS report. Now, for the 1- and 5-year reports, Tract displays in the first column for the first line, Total Cropland Acres includes cropland from all tracts within the FN, and Total Acres includes all acres (cropland and non-cropland) from all tracts within the FN. |

The Mapping Module was updated with the ability to set the HR (High Risk) checkbox on the Plant panel for a line and have it synced to the AR from Mapping. NOTE: If multiple map areas exist for a field, the System will not create a child line for the different map areas. That will be handled with TFS #105562. For this ticket, if multiple map areas exist, then on sync, the System will set HR flags as: 1) Multiple high-risk map areas (e.g., AAA and BBB): The System will not set the map area on sync; users will need to verify which applies and manually set. 2) High risk/non-high risk: The field will be marked as high risk with the map area set on sync. |

Companion Policy: An issue was identified with Companion Policy functionality when related STAX coverages existed. An AIP reported that after establishing companion units, when premium lines were updated on the source policy that had related STAX coverages, the companion policy MPCI lines updated correctly but their related STAX lines did not. Companion Policy logic has been corrected to account for related STAX coverages. |

|
Companion Policy: Companion Policy functionality previously did not account for companion links when PP claims were processed and acres were rolled/borrowed creating new child lines. With this ticket, Companion Policy functionality has been updated so that any PP child line created by the claim roll will NOT get any companion linkage flags. |

|
Fast Edit CLU: It was discovered that Planted Acres in the Fast Edit CLU banners, which are dynamically changed when crops and units are selected, were being displayed in the wrong banner for the appropriate Land Description. This was a widespread bug affecting all crops and Land Descriptions within Fast Edit CLU. A code fix was implemented to change the sorting of the Land ID groups to correctly display Planted Acres. |

VFR: As part of the new Veteran Farmer Rancher program issued by RMA for 2019 crops with a SCD after 12/20/2018 and for all crops in the 2020+ RYs, a couple of APH benefits apply. First of all, Yield Adjustments are applied at 80% of the t-yield rather than the typical 60%. In addition, a Veteran Farmer Rancher can utilize another person's history if they were involved in the decision making or physical actives of the farm or ranch. With this ticket, the APH benefits for VFR have been implemented. These include:
NOTE: This is similar to functionality already in place for BFR.
NOTE: Similar to the "BF" yield type for Beginning Farmer Rancher, the "VF" yield type can only be keyed when the override checkbox (identified by an asterisk [*] in the Production History grid) is selected.

WFRP: When a new commodity is reported on the Revised Farm Operation Report and that same commodity was not reported on the Intended Farm Operation Report, RMA requires null values to be sent in the intended fields on the P19A record. However, the System was not allowing the user to key blank or zero values in the intended fields on the Commodity page and instead was always requiring intended values greater than zero. To account for this scenario, a new checkbox, New Commodity, has been added to the Commodity page. This checkbox will only display when the Revised Report checkbox is selected and will require zero values in the intended commodity fields. NOTE: TFS #105152 addresses the transmission changes related to new commodities on the Revised Farm Operation Report. When the New Commodity checkbox is selected, the transmission logic will send all intended values as null on the P19A record. |
